> Sooo can anyone help me? [Didn't get a copy to the list as I sent it from the wrong address!!] These directions are specific to Gentoo due to the way that modules are handled.
Create a file in /etc/modules.d called atiusb and put the following into it: alias char-major-61-0 lirc_atiusb then do a modules-update Provided the USB sybsystem sees the device OK, hotplug should load the driver (it does on my mceusb remote) - check by unplugging & plugging in the device and use lsmod to see if the atiusb.ko module has loaded. If it doesn't load then add the following to /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6 lirc_atiusb so that it gets loaded at startup. You should also have a lirc_dev.ko module loaded as well - that gets loaed automagically (provided you remember to run depmod -a) when the made module is loaded. You can check that its loaded OK by checking for the device entry. # ls /dev/li* /dev/lirc: total 0 crw-rw---- 1 root root 61, 0 Sep 30 2005 0 notice that lirc is a directory and the drivers get device names 0, 1, 2.... within it for udev. Next, since you are using udev, you'll be creating a file in /etc/conf.d called lircd that contains LIRCD_OPTS="-d /dev/lirc/0 -o /dev/lircd" This will ensure that lircd gets started with the correct device, i.e. the one you listed above. >From there you should be OK to carry on with the irw tests.
